Reading a Message

Once you have received some mail you can get to it by typing ``i'' from the main menu (type ``m'' to get to the main menu) to see the contents of your ``INBOX'' (or current mail folder). A mail folder is just a collection of mail messages.
You can select which message you wish to read by using ``n'' (next message) and ``p'' (previous message) and then using ``v'' to view a message. The menu at the bottom of the screen will help you learn about additional commands.

For additional info look at Using Pine for Email on CATS/Athena from CATS.
